GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) residents planning to visit the UAE can apply for an electronic entry permit before travelling if they meet the eligibility conditions laid down by the country's immigration authorities.
The UAE eVisa allows eligible expatriates living in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia to enter the country without going through the traditional visa application process. The permit allows a stay of up to 30 days and can be extended once for another 30 days, subject to approval, according to the UAE's official immigration authorities.
